Answer: 0.0241

Step-by-step explanation:

This is solved using the probability distribution formula for random variables where the combination formula for selection is used to determine the probability of these random variables occurring. This formula is denoted by:

P(X=r) = nCr × p^r × q^n-r

Where:

n = number of sampled variable which in this case = 21

r = variable outcome being determined which in this case = 5

p = probability of success of the variable which in this case = 0.31

q= 1- p = 1 - 0.31 = 0.69

P(X=5) = 21C5 × 0.31^5 × 0.69^16

P(X=5) = 0.0241

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs. Not all tiles will be used. The box plot compares the monthly average
vovangra [49]

Hello,

The median of the temperatures at Springwood is 86. (median is at the middle).

the median of the temperatures at Meadows is 73. (median is at the middle).

The (IQR) interquartile range of the temperatures at Meadows is 12. (You have to subtract both of the IQR left and right 80 - 68 = 12).

The (IQR) interquartile range of the temperatures at Springwood is 14. (You have to subtract both of the IQR left and right 91 - 77 = 14).

the difference of the medians as a multiple of their average interquartile range is 79.5 is average median and 13 average IQR.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

0.6316

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the probability that 2 people were excited without replacement is shown below:

There is a total of 20 people

out of which 16 are excited and the remaining 4 would be non-excited

Now the probability would be

= \frac{^{16}C_2}{^{20}C_2}

= 0.6316

According to exit polling from the 2014 U.S. midterm elections, 36% of voters had a household income less than $50,000, while 64
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

0.6946 = 69.46% probability that a randomly selected Republican voter from the exit poll is from a household that makes at least $50,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

P(A \cap B) is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Republican

Event B: From a household that makes at least $50,000.

Probability of Republican:

43% of 36%(makes less than $50,000).

55% of 64%(makes more than $50,000).

So

P(A) = 0.43*0.36 + 0.55*0.64 = 0.5068

Republican and from a household that makes at least $50,000.

55% of 64%. So

P(A \cap B) = 0.55*0.64 = 0.352

What is the probability that a randomly selected Republican voter from the exit poll is from a household that makes at least $50,000?

P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.352}{0.5068} = 0.6946

0.6946 = 69.46% probability that a randomly selected Republican voter from the exit poll is from a household that makes at least $50,000.
